Total nucleic acids are extracted from a culture of cells and are then mixed with resin beads to which the polynucleotide 5'-TTT

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT-3' has been covalently attached. After a short incubation, the beads are then extracted from the mixture. When you analyze the cellular nucleic acids that have stuck to the beads, which of the following molecules do you expect to be most abundant?A. DNA.
B. tRNA.
C. rRNA. (it is not this one, I put this and it was wrong.)
D. mRNA.
E. Primary transcript RNA.

Answer:

D. mRNA.

Explanation:

Polyadenylation is defined as the addition of poly (A) to messenger RNA. This tail is made up of several adenosine monophosphates (adenine bases). In eukaryotes, polyadenylation is part of the process in which messenger RNA is formed for subsequent translation. Therefore, it is part of the process of gene expression.

Answer: D mRNA

Explanation:

mRNA (Messenger RNA) is a single-stranded RNA molecule that corresponds to the genetic sequence of a gene and is read by the ribosome in the process of producing a protein and it carries the genetic information copied from DNA in the form of a series of three-base code “words,” each of which specifies a particular amino acid.mRNA is the most abundant because it is the only type of RNA that is polyadenylated and the poly (A) tail would be able to base pair with the strands of poly(T) on the beads and thus stick to them. DNA would not be found in the sample, as the poly (A) tail is not encoded int he DNA and long runs of T are rare in DNA.

how does the random alignment of homologous chromosomes contribute to genetic variation in a population
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The assortment of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is random and generates genetic variation, the raw material for evolution.

During metaphase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes are lined up at the equator plate of the cell in order to be separated (assorted) in anaphase I.

The separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis I is random. Daughter cells receive unique gene combinations from an original parent cell.

Subsequently, haploid cells got from two successive meiotic divisions fuse during fecundation to form a diploid (2n) zygote.

During prophase I, non-sister chromatids interchange genetic material by a process known as recombination. This genetic process also increases genetic variation in daughter cells.

In conclusion, the assortment of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is random and generates genetic variation.

Muscle tissues are characterized by the presence of elongated cells, often called ____________ , that can contract to create mov
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. Muscle Fibers

2. Bones

3. Joints

Explanation:

Muscle tissue is made of muscle fibers. The plasma membrane of a muscle fiber is called sarcolemma while its cytoplasm is known as sarcoplasm. Muscle cells are characterized by the presence of specialized endoplasmic reticulum which is called sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Muscle cells exhibit contractility and extensibility. The ability of muscle cells to shorten their length forcibly in response to a stimulus is their contractility. Muscle fibers have the ability to extend and shorten themselves.

Extension and contraction of muscle fibers are responsible for the movement of the human body and its parts.

Muscles are attached to bones via tendons which in turn are the fibrous connective tissues. Muscles are also part of our joints where they assist in the movement by pulling the bones as well as stabilize and strengthen the joints.
